Need shower tray repair in Gellilydan?

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Gellilydan, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Shower tray repair in Gellilydan, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Whether it’s a crack across the base and movement when you stand on it, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Gellilydan questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you come to Gellilydan?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Gellilydan. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Repair or replace in Gellilydan?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do you need shower tray repair in Gellilydan?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips on the edges

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
